Tell yourself whatever you want... But it's exactly what I described. The frustrated kid walks around & tries to slap everyone on the legs. You aren't teaching internal self regulation or discipline. You are teaching either violence or mindless obedience, & both are great sources of evil in the world.

I have twins. They’ve never been hit or spanked. They’re 6 years old. Both boys. 1 hits and slaps when he doesn’t get his way. The other never hits or results to violence.

Same home, both never spanked or hit.

It’s not so simple.

Kids will do all sorts of things when they are unhappy, it's not like they won't figure out how to use their arms, but it certainly helps if you aren't modeling aggressive behavior.
